Is everybody happy?
knock, knock, knock, knock
You can't come in
knock, knock, knock
You can't come in
You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end
You're wondering how, you will pay, for the way you did behave
Curtain has fallen, now you're on your own
I won't return, forever you will wait
You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end
Curtain has fallen, now you're on your own
I won't return, forever you will wait
You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end
You're wondering how, you will pay, for the way you did behave
You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end
It's okay in the day I'm staying busy
Tied up enough so I don't have to wonder where is he
Got so sick of crying
So just lately
When I catch myself I do a 180
I stay up clean the house
At least I'm not drinking
Run around just so I don't have to think about thinking
That silent sense of content
That everyone gets
Just disappears soon as the sun sets
This face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul
He swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him
Moon spilling in
And I wake up alone
If I was my heart
I'd rather be restless
The second I stop the sleep catches up and I'm breathless
This ache in my chest
As my day is done now
The dark covers me and I cannot run now
My blood running cold
I stand before him
It's all I can do to assure him
When he comes to me
I drip for him tonight
Drowning in me we bathe under blue light
His face in my dreams seizes my guts
He floods me with dread
Soaked in soul
He swims in my eyes by the bed
Pour myself over him
Moon spilling in
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
And I wake up alone
[Amy Winehouse]
Our day will come (Our day will come)
And we'll have everything
We'll share the joy
Falling in love can bring
No one can tell me
That I'm too young to know
I love you so
And you love me
Our day will come (Our day will come)
If we just wait a while
No tears for us
Think love and wear a smile
Our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way
Our day will come
[Instrumental break]
Our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way
Our day will come
Our day will come
Our day will come
Our day....will come
Lent you Outsidaz and my new Badu
While you were thinking I didn't have a clue
Tough to sort files, with your voice in my head
So then I bribed you downstairs with a Marlboro Red
And now I feel so small discovering you knew
How much more torture would you have put me through?
You probably saw me laughing at all your jokes
Or how I did not mind when you stole all my smokes, yeah
And although my pride is not easy to disturb, yeah
You sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb
With your battered jeans, yeah and your Beastie tee
Now I can't work like this, no, no, with you next to me
And although he's nothing in the scheme of my years
It just serves to bludgeon my futile tears
And I'm not used to this, no, no, I observe, yeah I don't chase
But now I'm stuck with consequences thrust in my face, yeah
And the melodramas of my day delivery blows
That surpass your rejection, it just goes to show
A simple attraction that reflects right back to me
So I'm not as into you as I appear to be, yeah
Although my pride is not easily disturbed, yeah
You sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb
With your battered jeans, yeah and your Beastie tee, yeah
Now I can't work like this, no, with you next to me, yeah, yeah, yeah
His message was brutal but the delivery was kind
Maybe if I get this down I'll get it off my mind
Oh, it serves to condition me and smoothen my kinks, yeah
Despite my frustration for the way that he thinks
And I knew the truth, when it came, would be to that effect
At least you're attracted to me which I did not expect
Didn't think you get my number down as such
But I never hated myself for my age so much, yeah
And although my pride is not easy to disturb, yeah
You sent me flying, oh when you kicked me to the curb
So with your battered jeans, yeah and your Beastie tee
Now I can't work like this, no, no, with you next to me, yeah
And although my pride is not easy to disturb, yeah
You sent me flying, oh when you kicked me to the curb
Waitress on skates in trainin
They dart to call it dreaming
Images present themselves to me
Seeds are ripe for reapin'
I can tell you sleepin'
You're everything you ever wanted to be
And nothing here is changing
No messy rearranging
Cause every set of --- stays the same
Sinatras always singing
And you do all the clinging
And someone else accepts my place
Whatever my imagination throws
So rugged, growing rose
When my eyes do close
When my eyes do close
When they close
Turn and face my ceiling
Deep in all the feeling
Inhibitions turn to dust and fly away
Stop my eyelids flickering
With your petty bickering
But this I must say,
What I got to say
I hear my girl Dinah's playin'
And tree branches start swayin'
Run over and sit right by the roof
And I see the lips are growing
Little buds are showing
Reach out a hand
Invite him to the thrown
Whatever my imagination throws
So rugged, growing rose
When my eyes do close
When my eyes do close
When they close
Nothin’ such a scrutiny
Voiding purple mutual
You are loving beautifully
And it's fragrant beautifully
Colorful and monochrome
Amy Winehouse alone
Far away from ringing phone at home
I turn to stone, turn to stone
And all the thoughts are static
Yeah, my singing is automatic
And I wish that I could sell it in my every urge you
tell her
Cause I can sense no danger
I am the lone ranger
Through the desert in a yellow caddy
With a black haired blue eyed stranger
White dress outside drying
I've been fear for flying
I overtake Montgomery in skills, yeah
Never been more daring
Kitten heels I'm wearing
Reality a blow that sometimes cares
When I drop it lyrically
Words evolve generically
And I don't ever need to collapse in tears
And I could curse your timing
Thunderously miming
And I feel young beyond my years
Whatever my imagination throws
So rugged, growing rose
When my eyes do close
When my eyes do close
chorus:

My Man Is In A Car Accident
He Really Did Mean All The Things He Meant
He In The Emergency Room
Looking Crazy Like A Fool
Shit I Oughta Shoot Him With My Gun
Boom,Boom!
Ray You Know You Treated Me Wrong
This Is Why I Am Singing This Song
Boom Boom
There He Goes With One Leg
Pushed Him Down In the Tub
Made Him Sleep There
When I Was In My Bed
Didn't Need No Man
Standing up On Me
This Morning He Had A Wheelchair
With One Leg
I Didn't Care
My Man And Me Bout Split Up
Cuz We Ain't Nothin But Some Nasty Spit Up
Uh Uh
No No
Go Out With That H-O
Uh Uh
Hell No
Please Leave And Get Out Wih Your Hooooooooooooo
There's a saying old
Says that love is blind
Still we're often told
"Seek and ye shall find"
So I'm going to seek
A certain lad
I've had in mind
Looking everywhere
Haven't found him yet
He's the big affair
I cannot forget
Only man i ever think
Of with regret
I'd like
To add his initial
To my monogram
Tell me
Where is the shepherd
For this lost lamb?
There's a somebody
I'm longin' to see
I hope that he turns
Out to be
Someone to watch over me
I'm a little lamb
Who's lost in the wood
I know i could
Always be good
To one
Who'll watch over me
Although he may
Not be the man some
Girls think
Of as handsome
To my heart
He carries the key
Won't you tell him please
To put on some speed
Follow my lead
Oh, how i need
Someone to watch over me
Won't you tell him please
To put on some speed
Follow my lead
Oh, how i need
Someone to watch over me
It begins to tell round midnight, midnight
I do pretty well till after sundown
Supper time I'm feelin' sad
But it really gets bad round midnight
Memories always start round midnight, midnight
Haven't got the heart to stand those memories
When my heart is still with you
And old midnight knows it too
When some quarrel we've had needs mending
Does it mean that our love is ending?
Darlin', I need you, lately I find
You're out of my heart and I'm out of my mind
Let our hearts take wing round midnight, midnight
Let the angels sing for your returning
Till our love is safe and sound
When old midnight comes around
When some quarrel we've had needs mending
Does it mean that our love is ending?
Darlin', I need you, lately I find
You're out of my heart, I'm out of my mind
Till our love is safe and sound
Every day i see you
My hands were made for you
And you always give me stress me free point of view
Pick you up after school
[Chorus:]
(Mr. Magic) Take a token
(Mr. Magic) Of my love
(Mr. Magic) I see you through the smoke
Without you, a misery
Blue with a migraine
All the songs sound better when you're next to me
Hey, coz they come naturally
[Chorus]
Laying on my bed
I reach over for you
And you so fresh you even make the standards bloom
But its just to you through
[Chorus]
(Mr. Magic)
(Mr. Magic)
(Mr. Magic)
Waiting for the smoke to clear.
[hook]
I never wanted you to be my man
I just needed company
Don't want to get dependent on
Your time or who you spend it on
But I lose it when you look at me
Like smoke, I hung around in the unbalance
[verse 1: nas]
it's not a movie, this is not a script or proofread
i'll spit some untruths to dumb fools and groupies
fun to punctuate, pronunciate the funds i make
? put in your face
oh my mistake, you're not a floosy? then excuse me
before i talk, my style introduced me
get your name and phone number like 1-2-3
y'all know the story, y'all know the commentary
i kick the narrative, this is legendary
the good samaritan, hood thespian
like a polygamist, with a twist
will i marry again? maybe, i guess
i hold a lady's interest, i just met
the love scholar, she the teacher's pet
every other eve we meet and make each other sweat
i feel triumphant, no strings
just a fling to have fun with
i be out in london, camden
huntin' for the answers, why did god take away the homie?
i can't stand it
i'm a firm believer that we all meet up in eternity
just hope the big man show me some courtesy
why? 'cause i'm deemed a heart breaker
like smoke, girls lean 'round a player
yeaha
[hook]
I never wanted you to be my man
I just needed company
Don't want to get dependent on
Your time or who you spend it on
I lose it when you look at me
Like smoke, I hang around in the unbalance
[verse 2: nas]
yo, this recession is a test
it's affecting my complexion
misdirection my affection
my concerns are bill collections
the facts is the taxes, they after me
chapter three, my property
my handlers, they dealt with me improperly
i say some things i should probably keep privately
evaluate the world bank trusts like i'm ieg
those fly suites and my boojwazi
tall freak, she wouldn't protest with me at wall street
she says, no you're so deep
i said, no let's go through it
historically so ruthless feds came for joe louis
she said, my man you need to laugh sometimes
classify me as a whore, i tell her have some wine
you colder than penguin poo, ?
she's thinkin' that's just so silly to say
but if you really think about it hussy
see a penguin, he drags his shit on the ground all day
and there's a dragon ?
i'm through with you after i crush, so is that humorous enough?
the smoke i puff
tell the car to go to aura, funky buddah, whisky mist on mayfair
i hope i meet monie love so she can show me love
nyc to uk i might stay there
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you
Nobody knows where my Johnny has gone
But Judy left the same time
Why was he holding her hand
When he's supposed to be mine?
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you
Play all my records, keep dancing all night
But leave me alone for a while
'Til Johnny's dancing with me,
I've got no reason to smile
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you
Judy and Johnny just walked through the door
Like a queen with her king
Oh, what a birthday surprise
Judy's wearing his ring
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
I'm flashing
me crowd loves me
F**k Me up for this amazing situation.
How come your lonely
come to me and you won't be
Get ready for our pipes
Your rotten and old
i'm over you
Your a f**kin' tatter
Boring and seen
In the house
Big brother tv 'amazing'
Girls you know you betta watch out
Some guys, some guys are only about
That thing, that thing, that thing
That thing, that thing, that thing
Girls you know you betta watch out
Some girls, some girls are only about
That thing, that thing, that thing
That thing, that thing, that thing
Girls you know you betta watch out
Some girls, some girls are only about
That thing, that thing, that thing
Brother
There's so much that I could never say to your face
Bye, bye now
You should know the world and all its ways so find your place
How do I find words that do not condescend
When she bore you before me
'Cause she doesn't need a child, she needs a friend
A son not a sob story
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
And your priority, it must be heard
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
She can't always be there just to hold you down
Our mother
When you are at a age now well life turns around
My brother
Realize that you don't have to answer to no man
Responsibility comes down to you
But how can I expect you to understand
When you live life like its so run through
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
Your priority, it must be heard
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
And your priority, it must be heard
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
The way we were, we'll never be
I dont catch your drift and I dont catch your plan
Need to get my thoughts down but its getting late
Need to get up now, get my feet on the ground
But the show is so unprepared now
My place so messed up, I tried on some shoes
Should think clear and focus, but I've things to do
Glancing at my CD rack, eyes linger on frank
And I must put that check in the bank
Try to put me in a room
distractionless
(Everything is everything)
Spare me from worse
In the studio, I will finally burn
All the time is all you got)
Tempted to work
Always got something to do, someone to be seeing
Somewhere to be dancing I'm a wake human being
Its an opportunity, shout till you go blue
Unless I wanna do it
Your words go through
Need to buy some cigarettes, cant put it off any longer
Worked appeal depression
I feel it growing stronger
Maybe when Im all grown up, I will get it through
But right now I got stuff to do
Try to put me in a room
distractionless
(Everything is everything)
Spare me from worse
In the studio, I would finally burn
(All the time is all you got)
Tempted to work
Put me in a room
distraction less
(Everything is everything)
Spare me from worse
In the studio, I would finally burn
(All the time is all you got)
Tempted to work
Gotta get this song down before I leave tonight
But my hair, just does it's own thing
And I gotta look alright
And I gotta write a chorus, but words allude me now
I have to get this down before I leave somehow
And anyway I be thinkin' to meet you at the station
Guilty cause I should be home
Damn Procrastination
So when they ask me later, I wont tell them how its going
But now my head is empty, and the work load keeps on growing
Try to put me in a room
distraction less
(Everything is everything)
Spare me from worse
In the studio, I would finally burn
(All the time is all you got)
Tempted to work
Put me in a room
distraction less
Spare me from worse
In the studio, I would finally burn
Tempted to work
distraction less
Spare me from worse
I would finally burn
I bet you wonderin'
How I knew
'Bout your plans
To make me blue
With some other guy
You knew before
Between two of us guys
You know I love you more
It took me by surprise
I must say
When I found you yesterday
Don't you know that
I heard it
Through the grapevine
Not much longer
Would you be mine
Uhh, uhh
Heard it through
The grapevine
I'm just about
To lose my mind
Honey, honey
Oh, baby
Ooh ooh honey honey
I know a man
Ain't supposed to cry
But these tears
I can't hold inside
Losin' you
Would end my life
You see
Cause you mean
That much to me
You could have
Told me yourself
That you loved
Someone else
Instead
I heard it
Through the grapevine
Not much longer
Would you be mine
I heard it
Through the grapevine
And I'm just
About to lose my mind
Honey, honey
People say believe
Half of what you see
Oh, and none
Of what your hear
But I can't help
But be confused
If it's true
Please tell me dear
Do you plan
To let me go
For the other guy
If my man was fighting
Some unholy war
I would be behind him
Straight shook up beside him
With strength he didn't know
It's you I'm fighting for
He can't lose with me in tow
I refuse to let him go
At his side and drunk on pride
We wait for the blow
We put it in writing
But who you writing for
Just us on kitchen floor
Justice done,
Reciting my stomach standing still
Like you're reading my will
He still stands in spite of what his scars say
I'll battle till this bitter finale
Just me, my dignity and this guitar case
Yes my man is fighting some unholy war
And I will stand beside you
Who you fighting for
B - I would have died too
I'd of liked to
If my man was fighting
Some unholy war
Nobody stands in between me and my man, it's me
And Mr Jones (Me and Mr Jones)
What kind of fuckery is this?
You made me miss the Slick Rick gig (oh Slick Rick)
You thought I didn't love you when I did (when I did)
Can't believe you played me out like that (Ahhh)
No you ain't worth guest list
Plus one of all them girls you kiss (all them girls)
You can't keep lying to yourself like this (to yourself)
Can't believe you played yourself (out) like this
Rulers one thing but come Brixton
Nobody stands in between me and my man
'Cause it's me and Mr Jones (Me and Mr Jones)
What kind of fuckery are we?
Nowadays you don't mean dick to me (dick to me)
I might let you make it up to me (make it up)
Who's playing Saturday?
What kind of fuckery are you?
Side from Sammy you're my best black Jew
But I could swear that we were through (we were through)
I still want to wonder 'bout the things you do
Mr Destiny 9 and 14
Nobody stands in between me and my man
You should be stronger than me
You been here 7 years longer than me
Don't you know you supposed to be the man,
I pale in comparison to who you think I am,
You always wanna talk it through - I don't care!
I always have to comfort you when I'm there
But that's what I need you to do - stroke my hair!
Cos' I've forgotten all of young love's joy,
Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy,
You should be stronger than me,
But instead you're longer than frozen turkey,
Why'd you always put me in control?
All I need is for my man to live up to his role,
Always wanna talk it through - I'm ok,
Always have to comfort you every day,
But that's what I need you to do - are you gay?
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy
He said 'the respect I made you earn -
Thought you had so many lessons to learn'
I said 'You don't know what love is - get a grip!' -
Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script
I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime
I just wanna grip your body over mine
Please tell me why you think that's a crime
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Today my bird flew away
gone to find her big blue jay
Starlight before she took flight
I sung a lullaby of bird land everynight
sung for my Ava everynight
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
she's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
birds surround her sweet soun
and Ava flies in paradise
With dread I woke in my bed
to shooting pains up in my head
Lovebird, my beautiful bird
Spoken 'til one day she couldn't be heard
she just stopped singing
Ava was the morning, now she's gone
she's reborn like Sarah Vaughan
In the sanctuary she has found
birds surround her sweet soun
You Know I'm No Good
Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Your rolled up sleeves and your skull t-shirt
You say why did you do it with him today?
And sniff me out like I was Tanqueray
Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear me down like roger moore
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya, I was troubled
You know that I'm no good
Upstairs in bed, with my ex boy,
He's in the place, but I cant get joy,
Thinking of you in the final throws, this is when my buzzer goes
Run out to meet your chicks and bitter
You say when we're married cause youre not bitter
There'll be none of him no more
I cried for you on the kitchen floor
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told ya, I was troubled
You know that I'm no good
Sweet reunion, jamaica and spain
Were like how we were again
I'm in the tub youre on the seat
Lick your lips as I soak my feet
Then you notice lickle carpet burn
My stomach drops and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst
To truly stuck the knife in first
I cheated myself like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled, you know that I'm no good
I cheated myself, like I knew I would
I told ya I was troubled, yeah ya know that I'm no good
Understand once he was a family man
so surely I would never, ever go through it first hand
Emulate all the shit my mother hated
I can't help but demostrate my Freudian fate
My alibi for taking your guy
history repeats itself, it fails to die
and animal agression is my downfall
I don't care 'bout what you got I wanted all
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
I'm nurturing, I just wanna do my thing
and I'll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing
and I'll save my tears for uncovering my fears
for behavioural patters that stick over the years
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
and I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?
Your neighbours were screaming
I don't have a key for downstairs, so I punched all the buzzers hoping you wouldn't be there
So now my head's hurting
You say I always get my own way
But you were in the shower when I got there, I'd have wanted to stay, but I got nothing to say
Cos you were so beautiful before today
But then I heard what you got to say...man that was ugly
The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas
Put it in the box, put it in the box
Frank's in there and I don't care
Put it in the box, put it in the box
Just take it
Take the box
Take the box
I came home this evening and nothing felt like how it should be
I feel like writing you a letter but that is not me...you know me
Feel so f*cking angry; don't wanna be reminded of you
But when I left my sh*t in your kitchen, I said goodbye to your bedroom it smelled of you
Mr False Pretence, you don't make sense
I just don't know you
But you make me cry, where's my kiss goodbye?
I think I love you
The Moschino bra you bought me last Christmas
Put it in the box, put it in the box
Frank's in there and I don't care
Put it in the box, put it in the box
Now take it
Take the box
Just take it, take it
Take the box
And now just take the box
Take the box
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said 'no, no, no'
Yes I've been black but when I come back you'll know know know
I ain't got the time and if my daddy thinks I'm fine
He's tried to make me go to rehab but I won't go go go
I'd rather be at home with Blake
I ain't got seventy days
Cause there's nothing
There's nothing you can teach me
That I can't learn from Mr. Hathaway
I didn't get a lot in class
But I know it don't come in a shot glass
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said 'no, no, no'
Yes I've been black but when I come back you'll know know know
(Now rockin wit the best Amy baby)
The man said 'why do you think you here'
I said 'I got no idea
I'm gonna, I'm gonna lose my baby
so I always keep a bottle near'
He said 'I just think your depressed,
(The best Amy Amy)
this me, yeah baby, and the rest'
They tried to make me go to rehab but I said 'no, no, no' (Yes)
Yes I've been black but when I come back you'll know know know
Young, uh
Mo money, mo checks, im addicted to fresh
6 pair of kicks is my definition of 12 steps
Kick back in the back, get the phantom to drop
Bass blarin outta my system, thats how i detox
O when will he stop, he still pumpin that real sh*t
My flow so dumb, my face is numb, n*gga,i dont feel sh*t
Where's a therapist? Yea I'm outta control
They tryna make me go to rehab, I won't go, no
And so I'm addicted, I'm Britney, Whitney, and Bobby
Betty Ford ain't ready for us, ain't nothin can stop me
Oh look he's collapsin, just look how he's rappin
Everytime I try to get out it pulls me back in
Amy should have rehabed him,'stead she doubled his ration
Can you blame me for being a slave to my passion
My heroine flows more deeper than Marilyn's nose I'ma O.D.
'til I'm in peace like Anna Nicole,
Hov!
I don't ever wanna drink again
I just ooh I just need a friend
I'm not gonna spend ten weeks
have everyone think I'm on the mend
It's not just my pride
It's just 'til these tears have dried
There I go, there I go, there I go, there I go
Pretty baby you are the soul, snaps my control
Such a funny thing but everytime you're near me
I never can behave
You give me a smile and I'm wrapped up in your magic
There´s music all around me
Crazy music, music that keeps calling me so
very close to you, turns me into your slave
Come on and do with me any little thing that you want to
Anything, baby just let me get next to you
So am I insane or do I really see heaven in your eyes?
Bright as stars that shine up above you
In the clear blue sky, how I worry bout you
Just can't live my life without you
Baby come here, don't have no fear
Oh, is there a wonder why
I'm really feeling in the mood for love
So tell me why, stop to think about this weather, my dear
This little dream might fade away
There I go talking out of my head again baby won't you
come and put our two hearts together
That would make me strong and brave
Oh, when we are one, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
If there's a cloud up above us
Come on and let in rain
I'm sure our love together would endure a hurricane
Oh my baby won't you please let me love you
and give from this awful misery
What is all this talk about loving me, my sweet
I am not afraid, not anymore, not like before
Don't you understand me, now baby please
Pull yourself together, do it soon
My soul's on fire, come on and take me
I'll be what you make me, my darlin, my sweet
Oh baby, you make me feel so good
Let me take you by the hand
Come let me visit out there
In that new promised land
Maybe there we can find
A good place to use a lovin' state of mind
I'm so tired of being without it
And never known what love was about
James Moody you can come on and hit me,
you can blow now if you want to, I´m through
For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came
Love is a losing game
While I wished I'd never played
Oh what a mess we made
And now the final flame
Love is a losing game
Played though by the bed
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand
Self prophet profile
Till the chips were down
Though you're a gambling man
Love is a losing hand
Though I'd bet on blind
Love is a faith resign
Memories on my mind
Love is a faith resign
Over feel tired out
Left at by the gals
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game
When will we get the time to be just friends
It's never safe for us not even in the evening
'cos I've been drinking
Not in the morning where your shit works
It's always dangerous when everybody's sleeping
And I've been thinking
Can we be alone?
Can we be alone?
When will we get the time to be just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends
And no I'm not ashamed but the guilt will kill you
If she don't first
I'll never love you like her
Though we need to find the time
To just do this shit together
For it gets worse
I wanna touch you
But that just hurts
When will we get the time to be just just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends, just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends, just friends
When will we get the time to be just friends, just friends
Only paid attention in your lessons
I Sat close at the front so I could see
Your enthusiastic demonstrations
Teaching to a class of only me
And I couldnt speak directly to you
Without stuttering or turning red
So looking back I dont know how I handled it, yeah
Futile frustration in my head
Chorus 1x:
I cant help but analyze your actions,
Neglecting mine
Before I know Ive fallen hard
And now I tread water in time
Hated it when I saw them together
I sat around waiting for shit to end
Unconsciously I tried to sabotage it
To get revenge on my best friend
Because I was in love with him before her
I had just cause to grieve
So not long after she broke up with him
I got my closure on new years eve
Chorus 2x
I love all the bickering and insults
And when I shout at you and you smile
Making coffee while my mind spills over
How I catch your art once in a while
Shouldnt I have grown a little wiser?
Why havent I learned my lesson yet?
And although I have made my love progresses
I tend to learn as much as I forget
Attract me
'til it hurts to concentrate
Distract me
stops me doing work I hate
and just to show him how it feels
I walk past his desk in heels
one leg resting on a chair
from the side he pulls my hair
(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
He's just too hard to ignore
Masculine you spin a spell
I think you'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
Where's my moral parallel?
It takes me
half an hour to write a verse
He makes me
imagine it from bad to worse
My weakness for the other sex
every time his shoulders flex
way the shirt hangs off his back
my train of thought spins right off track
(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
He's just too hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
so where's my moral parallel?
His own style
right down to his Diesel jeans
Immobile
I can't think by any means
Underwear peeks out the top
I'll let you know when you should stop
from the picture my mind drew
I know I'd look good on you
(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
You're just too hard to ignore
Masculine you spin a spell
I think you'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
so where's my moral parallel?
Creative energy abused
all my lyrics go unused
but when I clock black hair, blue eyes
a teardrop I fantasise
(Amy Amy Amy)
(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
He's just too hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
so where's my moral parallel?
(Amy Amy Amy)
(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
He's just too hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
so where's my moral parallel?
You should be stronger than me
You been here 7 years longer than me
Don't you know you supposed to be the man,
Not pal in comparison to who you think I am,
You always wanna talk it through - I don't care!
I always have to comfort you when I'm there
But that's what I need you to do - stroke my hair!
Cos' I've forgotten all of young love's joy,
Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy,
You should be stronger than me,
But instead you're longer than frozen turkey,
Why'd you always put me in control?
All I need is for my man to live up to his role,
Always wanna talk it through- I'm ok,
Always have to comfort you every day,
But that's what I need you to do - are you gay?
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy
He said 'the respect I made you earn -
Thought you had so many lessons to learn'
I said 'You don't know what love is - get a grip!' -
Sounds as if you're reading from some other tired script
I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime
I just wanna rip your body over mine
So tell me why you think that's a crime
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady, but you my lady boy
Lent you outsiders and my new Badu
while you were thinking I didn't have a clue
tough to sort files with your voice in my head
So then I bribed you downstairs with a malboro red
and now I feel so small discovering you knew
How much more torture would you have put me through?
you probably saw me laughing at all your jokes
or how I did not mind when you stole all my smokes
And although my pride is not easy to disturb
you sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb
With your battered jeans (yeah) and your beastie tee
Now I can't work like this with you next to me
And although he is nothing in the scheme of my years
it just serves to blugdeon my futile tears
And I'm not use to this,no no I observe, I don't chase
But now i sit with consequences thrust in my face
And the melodramas of my day deliver blows,
that surpass your rejection it just goes to show,
a simple attraction that reflects right back to me
so I'm not as into you as I appear to be.
although my pride yeah is not easily disturbed yeah yeah
you sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb
With you battered jeans yeah and your beasties tee
Now I can't work like this with you next to me
His message was brutal but the delivery was kind
maybe if I get this down I'll get it off my mind
oh it serves to condition me and smoothen my kinks,
despite my frustation for the way that he thinks.
and I knew the truth, when it came, would be to that effect
At least you're attracted to me which I did not expect
didn't think you get my number down and such
but I never hated myself for my age so much yeah
And although my pride yeah is not easily disturbed
you sent me flying when you kicked me to the curb
so with your battered jeans and your beasties tee
Meet you downstairs in the bar and heard
Your rolled up sleeves in your skull T-shirt
You say, "What did you do with him today?"
And sniffed me out like I was Tanqueray
'Cause you're my fella, my guy
Hand me your Stella and fly
By the time I'm out the door
You tear men down like Roger Moore
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good
Upstairs in bed with my ex-boy
He's in a place but I can't get joy
Thinking on you in the final throes
This is when my buzzer goes
Run out to meet you, chips and pitta
You say, "When we married", 'cause you're not bitter
There'll be none of him no more
I cried for you on the kitchen floor
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good
Sweet reunion Jamaica and Spain
We're like how we were again
I'm in the tub, you on the seat
Lick your lips as a I soak my feet
And then you notice likkle carpet burns
My stomach drop and my guts churn
You shrug and it's the worst
Who truly stuck the knife in first
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you, I was trouble
You know that I'm no good
I cheated myself
Like I knew I would
I told you, I was trouble
Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
But will you love me tomorrow?
Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I believe the magic of your sighs?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
When the night meets the morning sun?
I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Understand, once he was a family man
So surely I would never, ever go through it first hand
Emulate all the shit my mother hated
I can't help but demonstrate my Freudian fate
My alibi for taking your guy
History repeats itself, it fails to die
And animal aggression is my downfall
I don't care 'bout what you got, I want it all
It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
And I question myself again, "What is it about men?"
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
And I question myself again, "What is it about men? What is it about men?"
I'm nurturing, I just wanna do my thing
And I'll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing
And I'll save my tears for uncovering my fears
Our behavioral patters that stick over the years
'Cause it's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed
And I question myself again, "What is it about men?"
Now my destructive side has grown a mile wide
And I question myself again, "What is it about men?"
Ooh, it's bricked up in my head and it's shoved under my bed
And I question myself again, "Now what is it about men?"
My destructive side has grown a mile wide
And I question myself again, "What is it about men? What is it about men?"
I can see you ahead of me
But I'm not always forward thinkin'
I tell you what you want to hear
It depends on what I've been drinkin'
Cause everything I do or say
Makes it hard for you to stay
We both know What it is
Now-a-days we talk too much
Like your forgetting all the good shit
You decide what’s wrong with me
I always used to let you say it
But now I like to think out loud
Your runnin' with some different crowd
We both know what it is
I don’t know you anymore
Supposed to be the man
That I live my life by
And your attitude become a bore
And I'm so tired I cant even cry
Mr Ultra sensitive
Ill never let myself forget you
Messed each other up you know
So Im sorry if I upset you
tomorrow is another day
So Ill call you cause thats OK
We both know what it is
I dont know you anymore
Supposed to be the man
That I live my life by
And you're attitude become a bore
And I'm so Tired
I can't even cry
Relationship doesn’t remain
We resonate on different flames
I could cut you down again
If you were like all other men
If you were like all other men
I know that I could shut you down again
But my friend ,but my friend
I don’t know you anymore
Supposed to be the man
That I live my life by
And your attitude become a bore
And I'm so tired I cant even cry
I don’t know you anymore
Supposed to be the man
That I live my life by
And your attitude become a bore
Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you're doing
And in my head I paint a picture
'Cause since I've come on home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie
Did you have to go to jail
Put your house on up for sale
Did you get a good lawyer?
Hope you didn't catch a tan
Hope you find the right man
Who'll fix it for you
Are you shopping anywhere
Changed the color of your hair
Are you busy?
And did you have to pay that fine
You was dodging all the time
Are you still busy?
Since I've come on home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie
Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you're doing
And in my head I paint a picture
'Cause since I've come on home
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over
Stop makin' a fool out of me
Why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie, Valerie
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile
Yes, just to know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do
(And I do and I)
And I do
(And I do and I)
And I do
(And I do and I da da da, da da da)
I'll be good to her
I'll make love to her
Everyone says there'll come a day
When I'll walk alongside of her
Yes, just to know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do
(And I do and I)
And I do
(And I do and I)
(And I do and I, and I do and I)
Why can't she see?
How blind can she be?
Someday she'll see
That she was meant just for me, oh oh yeah
To know know know her
Is to love love love her
Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile
Yes, just to know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do
(And I do and I, and I do and I)

Just to see her smile
Makes my life worthwhile
Yes, just to know know know her
Is to love love love her
And I do
(And I do and I)
And I do, and I do, and I do
All I can ever be to you is a darkness that we know
And this regret I got accustomed to
Once it was so right when we were at our high
Waiting for you in the hotel at night
I knew I hadn't met my match but every moment we could snatch
I don?t know why I got so attached
It?s my responsibility and you don?t owe nothing to me
But to walk away, I have no capacity
He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I?m gone
And in your way in this blue shade
My tears dry on their own
I don?t understand, why do I stress the man
When there?s so many better things at hand
We could a never had it all, we had to hit a wall
So this is inevitable withdrawal
Even if I stop wanting you, a perspective pushes through
I?ll be some next man?s other woman soon
I cannot play myself again, I should just be my own best friend
Not **** myself in the head with stupid men
He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I?m gone
And in your way in this blue shade
My tears dry on their own
So we are history, your shadow covers me
The sky above, a blaze
He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I?m gone
And in your way in this blue shade
My tears dry on their own
I wish I could sing no regrets and no emotional debts
'Cause as we kiss goodbye the sun sets
So we are history, the shadow covers me
The sky above, a blaze that only lovers see
He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I?m gone
And in your way my blue shade
My tears dry on their own
He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I am gone
And in your way my deep shade
My tears dry on their own
He walks away, the sun goes down
He takes the day but I?m gone
And in your way my deep shade

There I go, there I go, there I go, there I go
Pretty baby you are the soul, snaps my control
Such a funny thing but everytime your near me
I never can behave
You give me a smile and then I'm wrapped up in your magic
There's music all around me
Crazy music, music that keeps calling me so
Very close to you, turns me your slave
Come on and do me any little thing you want to
Anything, baby just let me get next to you
So am I insane or do I really see heaven in your eyes?
Bright as stars that shine up above you
In the clear blue skies, how I worry 'bout you
Just can't live my life without you
Baby come here, don't have no fear
Oh, is there a wonder why
I'm really feeling in the mood for love?
So tell me why, stop to think about this weather, my dear
This little dream might fade away
There I go talking out of my head again baby won't you
Come and put our two hearts together
That would make me strong and brave
Oh, when we are one, I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid
Now if there's a cloud up above us
Come on and let in rain
I'm sure our love together would endure a hurricane
Oh my baby won't you please let me love you
And get a release from this awful misery
What is all this talk about loving me, my sweet
I am not afraid, not anymore, not like before
Don't you understand me, now baby please

For you I was a flame
Love is a losing game
Five story fire as you came
Love is a losing game
Why do I wish I never played
Oh, what a mess we made
And now the final frame
Love is a losing game
Played out by the band
Love is a losing hand
More than I could stand
Love is a losing hand
Self professed, profound
Till the chips were down
Know you?re a gambling man
Love is a losing hand
Though I?m rather blind
Love is a fate resigned
Memories mar my mind
Love is a fate resigned
Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame
You're just a little boy underneath that hat
You need your nerve to hide your ego - don't come with that
You think everything is handed to you free
But it's not that easy, no
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
My girl says I'm too sensitive to ride with you
But I'm not listening to her, mm hm
Yes I'm perceptive,so when I'm done with you
You'll wish you're headed back the way it were
As you were
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now and then
[Ad lib]
Oh, I'm not ruling you out
I'm just in doubt as to what you say you're all about, yeah
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta show you now and them
I gotta know you now and then
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now
We may never meet again
I gotta know you now
Wish I could say it breaks my heart
like you did in the beginning
Its not that we grew apart
a nightingale no longer singing
Its something i know you cant do
seperate sex with emotion
I sleep alone the sun comes up
your still clinging to that notion
Every thing is slowing down
river of no return
recognise my every sound
there is nothing new to learn
you'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night, in the night
want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where Im going
oh, its you again listen this isnt a reunion
so sorry if i turn my head
yours is a familliar face
but that dont make your place safe
in my bed my bed my bed
I never thought my memory
of what we had could be intruded
but I couldnt let it be
I needed it as much as you did
Now its not hard to understand
why we just speak at night
The only time I hold your hand
is to get the angle right
Everything is slowing down
river of no return
you recognise my every sound
theres nothing new to learn
you'll never get my mind right
like 2 ships passing in the night
in the night in the night
want the same thing where we lay
otherwise mines a different way
a different way from where im going
oh, its you again listen this isnt a reunion
so sorry if I turn my head
yours is a familliar face
but that dont make your place safe
I couldn't resist him
His eyes were like yours
His hair was exactly the shade of brown
He's just not as tall, but I couldn't tell
It was dark and I was lying down
You are everything - he means nothing to me
I can't even remember his name
Why're you so upset?
Baby, you weren't there and I was thinking of you when I came
What do you expect?
You left me here alone; I drank so much and needed to touch
Don't overreact - I pretended he was you
You wouldn't want me to be lonely
How can I put it so you understand?
I didn't let him hold my hand
But he looked like you; I guess he looked like you
No he wasn't you
But you can still trust me, this ain't infidelity
It's not cheating; you were on my mind
Yes he looked like you
I bought you a fur coat when you were fifteen
You wore it to the disco, but everyone was in jeans
But you were a rich girl, and only having fun
Your worn out, brought stares from everyone
Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong?
You left for London, when you were nineteen
Had to pawn all your nice clothes, just living on dreams
A man in the bright lights took all that you own
Now he's taken your freedom for a fate unknown
But you were a rich girl, hardly having fun
Your worn out dresses, brought stares from everyone
Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong?
Hey, little rich girl you've been away for so long
And now little rich girl, my words are in this song
Hey, little rich girl my love for you is gone
And now little rich girl, I know where you went wrong
At your dad's office party all the movies were blue
Caused him so much heart ache, because the screen star was you
You left for London, when you were nineteen
Had to pawn all your nice clothes, but you were living on dreams
You were a rich girl, and only having fun
But your worn out dresses, brought stares from everyone
Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong?
Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong?
When I walk in your shoes
I understand a man confused
There must have been but I don't care
I feel the way your soul does there
Darling they empathize
Looking through your bloodshot eyes
And I know you, you're so frustrated
Above we all become what we once hated
Be slight nobody can be that wise
I can't help you if you won't help yourself
I can't help you if you don't help yourself
You can only get so much from someone yeah
You can get so much from me
I can't help you if you won't help yourself
You've got a degree a in philosophy
So you think, you're cleverer than me
But I'm not just some drama queen
'Cos it's where you're at not where you've been
So what do you expect from me
To hold your head above the sea
And there are you even though you're bigger
'Cos don't you know, you crush my tiny figure
And anyway we're still so young and this isn't yet the day
I can't help you if you won't help yourself
I can't help you if you don't help yourself
Yo can help so, you can only get so much from someone yeah
I can't help you if you won't help yourself
You might be twenty-five but in my mind
I see you at sixteen years or most of the time
And I'm, I'm just a child and you're full grown
And no I find nothing like I've ever known yeah
He can only hold her for so long
The lights are on but no one's home
She's so vacant
Her soul is taken
He is what she's running from
Now How can he have her heart
A When it got stole
Though he tries to pacify her,
Cuz what's inside her never dies
Even if she's content in his warmth
She gets pained with urgency
So Urgent kisses
The man she misses
The man that he longs to be
Now how can he have her heart
A When it got stole
So he tries to pacify her
Cause what's inside her never dies
So he tries to pacify her
cuz what's inside her, it never died.
So he tries to pacify her
simple, sweet guitar
humbled by the bass
when the beat kicks in
everything falls in to place
and it overpowers me
i can't help but dance
you can try to stop me now
but you won't get the chance
half time, time to make it through
consider the change
see it from a different view
half time, time to think it through
consider the change
rhythm floods my heart
the melody it feeds my soul
the tune tears me apart
and it swallows me whole
you should thank your lucky stars
cause the music is a gift
and it's stronger than all else
provides me with a bliss.
half time, time to think it through
consider the change
half time, time to think it through
consider the change
my lyrics reveling
some natural vibe
to find the lay back feeling
does that it right
every phrase Sinatra sings
it's too much to say, yeah
so i sing this endless sheet
it pacifies my ache
half time, time to think it through
consider the change
half time, time to think it through
When you walk in the bar and you're dressed like a star
Rockin' your F me pumps
And the men notice you with your Gucci bag crew
Can't tell who he's lookin' to
'Cause you all look the same everyone knows your name
And that's your whole claim to fame
Never miss a night 'cause your dream in life
Is to be a footballers wife
You don't like players that's what you say-a
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
You don't like ballers they don't do nothing for ya
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller
You're more than a fan lookin' for a man
But you end up with one-nights-stands
He could be your whole life if you got past one night
But that part never goes right
In the morning you're vexed he's onto the next
And you didn't even get no text
Don't be too upset if they call you a sket
'Cause like the news everyday you get pressed
You don't like players that's what you say-a
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
Or them big ballers don't do nothing for ya
But you'd love a rich man six foot two or taller
You can't sit down right 'cause you jeans are too tight
And your lucky its ladies night
With your big empty purse every week it gets worse
At least your breasts cost more than hers
So you did Miami 'cause you got there for free
But somehow you missed the plane
You did too much E, met somebody
And spent the night getting caned
Without girls like you there'd be no fun
We'd go to the club and not see anyone
Without girls like you there's no nightlife
All those men just go home to their wives
Don't be mad at me 'cause your pushing thirty
And your old tricks no longer work
You should have known from the jump that you always get dumped
Tell your boyfriend next time he around
To buy his own weed and don't wear my shit down
I wouldn't care if bre would give me some more
I'd rather him leave you then leave him my draw
When you smoke all my weed man
You gotta call the green man
So I can get mine and you get yours
Once is enough to make me attack
So bring me a bag and your man can come back
I'll check him at the door make sure he got green
I'm tighter than airport security teams
When you smoke all my weed man
You gotta call the green man
So I can get mine and you get yours
I'm my own man so when will you learn
That you got a man but I got to burn
Don't make no difference if I end up alone
I'd rather have myself a smoke my homegrown
It's got me addicted, does more than any dick did
Yeh I can get mine and you get yours
She sits home and dreams
That her man will leave his mark on her hand
He's not all he seems
But she's seen a dress, she has the flowers planned
Now she won't be happy
Till she looks down and sees the engagement ring
It's for security
'Cause she will be waiting years for her wedding
For me it ain't real, it's fools gold
There too many fools sold, not an excuse, oh
For me it ain't real, it's fools gold
I don't hear everything I'm told
He won't change her life
He just chasing tail and wasting her time
She calls herself his wife
He calls her at 8 and says be here by 9
She don't notice how when she gets the ring it's not a good fit
So next time that they row she throws it out
It goes to the last girl he hit
'Cause for me it ain't real, it's fools gold
There too many fools sold, not an excuse, oh
For me it ain't real, it's fools gold
I don't hear everything I'm told
So take the gold you find
And for your own sake hold it in your hand
Now make sure you bite down
And watch your tooth don't break on that wedding band
For me it ain't real, it's fools gold
There too many fools sold, not an excuse, oh, oh
For me it ain't real, yes it's fools gold
Got back together with my man last night
But I think I was dreaming, he didn't feel quite right
I pressed his chest under my fingertips
Beside myself I sighed and reminded of his lips
I'm confused and quizzical
Funny don'tcha know
I just wan get physical
Let me tell ya how
Do me good, I'll tell you anything you want to hear
Do me good, do me good, do me good, do me good
Do me good and all this craziness will disappear
Do me good, do me good, do me good, do me good
It's like he was designed with me in mind
He's so good from behind, he's beautifully defined
I miss him most of all when it got late
Attempt to hear him breathing or feel his shifting weight
I'm confused and quizzical
Funny don'tcha know
I just wan get physical
Let me tell ya how
Do me good, I'll tell you anything you want to hear
Do me good, do me good, do me good, do me good
Do me good and all this craziness will disappear
Cupid, draw back your bow.
and let your arrow flow.
Straight to my lovers heart for me.
Nobody but me.
Cupid, please hear my cry.
and let your arrow fly.
Straight to my lovers heart, hold me.
I don't want to bother you but I'm in distress.
There's danger of me losing all my happiness.
I love a man who doesn't know i exist.
And this you can fix.
Cupid, draw back your bow.
and let your arrow flow.
Straight to my lovers heart for me.
Nobody but me.
Cupid, please hear my cry.
and let your arrow fly.
Straight to my lovers heart, hold me
Now if your arrow makes his love strong for me.
I swear i'm gonna love him 'til eternity.
I know between the both of us, his heart we can steal.
Cupid help me if you will
So Cupid, draw back your bow.
and let your arrow flow.
Straight to my lovers heart for me.
Nobody but me.
Cupid, please hear my cry.
and let your arrow fly.
Straight to my lovers heart, hold me
yeah, Cupid.
oh, Cupid.
Her name is Cherry.
We've just met,
but already she knows me better than you.
She understands me, after 18 years,
but you still don't see me like you ought to do.
Maybe we could talk bout things if
you was made of wood and strings.
While I love her every sound,
I don't know how to turn you down,
and you're so thick and my pages are thin,
So I got me a new best friend
With a pick-up that puts you to shame,
and Cherry is her name.
And when I'm lone-ly
Cherry's there
and she plays along while I sing out my blues
I could be crying,
and you don't care
You won't call me back, you're stubborn as a mule.
May-be we could talk bout things if
you was made of wood and strings.
You might think I've
gone too far
I'm talking bout
For you, I sigh, for you, dear only
Why haven't you seen it, I'm all for you
Body and soul
I spend my days in longing
Wondering why it's me that you're wronging
I tell, you I mean it, I'm all for you
Body and soul
I can't believe it, it's hard to conceive it
That you'd turn away, romance
Are you pretending, it looks like the ending
Unless, I could have one more chance to prove, dear
My life a wreck, you're making
You know, I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you
Body and soul
My life a wreck, you're making
You know I'm yours for just the very taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you
i would die before divorce you
i'd take a thousand thumps for my love
'cause you kiss a lucky horseshoe
stuck it in my boxing glove
'cause anyone who will see us
through our victory and done defeat
knows that i'll take you to the cleaners
if you come between the cheats
between the cheats, ooooeeoooo
between the cheats, ooooeeeooo
my husband is the finest handsome hustler
and he still makes this housewife blush
so i'm throwing my hand in his
i'm sitting on the royal flush
women drink him in, swimming in his green eyes
then go home and catch the chips you got
the jack of hearts is my jackpot
between the cheats, ooooeeeooooo
between the cheats, ooooeeeeoooo
catch me on...
and i know as my heart beats
there's a win secret to...
and it's sworn between the cheats
between the cheats, oooooeeeooooo
between the cheats, oooooeeeooooo
Amy Winehouse Best Friends Lyrics
I can't wait to get away from you
Unsurprisingly you hate me too
We only communicate when we need to fight
But we are best friends...right?
You're too good at pretending you don't care
There's enough resentment in the air
Now you don't want me in the flat
When youre home at night
But we're best friends right?
Youre Stephanie and I'm Paulette
You know what all my faces mean
And it's easy to smoke it up, forget
Everything that happened in between
Nickys right when he says I can't win
So I don't wanna tell you anything
I can't even think about
How you feel inside
But we are best friends, right?
I don't like the way you say my name
You're always looking for someone to blame
Now you want me to suffer just cause
You was born wide
But we are best friends right?
Youre Stephanie and I'm Paulette
You know what all my faces mean
And its easy to smoke it up, forget
Everything that happened in between
So I had love for you when I was 4
And there's no one I wanna smoke with more
Someday I'll buy the Rizla*, so you get the dro**
Cause we are best friends right, right, right, right?
Because we are best friends right?
Because we are best friends right?
*Rizla is United Kingdom marijuana rolling paper
Make a name for myself in different ways
All the while you will see my songs of praise
How can I concentrate when all the while my head
Throw me scenarios so I tease my self esteem
Though I can talk it through
Really I finally talk
My frustration is released but nothing let em know
And added to that Im sick of having to seek some peace
Because I need emotion with my physical release
Cant help
But bring it up and beat the point to death
But my
Words are for nothing, Im wasting my breath
Cant help
But bring it up and beat the point to death
But my words are for nothing, I just keep wasting my breath
Now everywhere I got and I always stare
I justify attraction by your hands, your lips, your hair
And so although I always look I know that I cant touch
And because I can only take a full time man so much
And now I reached a point where I dont care anymore
Its a necessity just like it was before
Many says I ignore the way my body aches
Cause Im the shit I earn I cant look for my sins
Oh, oh, no
Cant help
But bring it up and beat the point to death
But my
Words are for nothing, Im wasting my breath
Cant help
But bring it up and beat the point to death
But my words are for nothing, I just keep wasting my breath
Cant help
I cant help but bring it up, no
But my
Nothing, no
Cant
I cant help, no, no
But my words are for nothing, I just keep wasting my breath
Cant help
But bring it up and beat the point to death
But my
Words are for nothing, Im wasting my breath
Cant help
But bring it up and beat the point to death
But my words are for nothing, I just keep wasting my breath
Cant help
But my
Cant help
He left no time to regret, kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high and my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew so far removed
From all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track, my odds are stacked
I'll go back to black
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to, I go back to us
I love you much, it's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
When I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
Black, black, black, black
Black, black, black
I go back to
I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
Attract me, 'till it hurts to concentrate,
Distract me, stop me doin' work I hate
Just to show him how it feels
I walk past his desk in heels
One leg resting on the chair
From the side he pulls my hair
Amy Amy Amy
Although I've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
You're just to hard to ignore
Masculine you spin a spell
I think you'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Where's my moral parallel
It takes me, half an hour to write a verse
He makes me imagine it from bad to worse
My weakness for the other sex
Every time his shoulders flex
The way the shirt hangs off his back
My train of thought spins right off track
Amy Amy Amy
Although I've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
He's just to hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Where's my moral parallel
His own style, right down to his Diesel jeans
Immobile, I can't think by any means
Underwear peeps at the top
I'll let you know where you should stop
From the picture my mind drew
I know I'd look good on you
Amy Amy Amy
Although I've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
You're just to hard to ignore
Masculine you spin a spell
I think that you'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Where's my moral parallel
Creative energy abused
All my lyrics go unused
When I clock black hair blue eyes
I drift off I fantasize
Amy Amy Amy
Although I've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
He's just to hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Where's my moral parallel
Amy Amy Amy
Although I've been here before
Amy Amy Amy
He's just to hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
Amy Amy Amy
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
Tomorrow I'll miss you
Remember I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send all my loving to you
I'll pretend that I'm kissing
The lips that I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send all my loving to you
All my loving, I will send to you
All my loving, darling I'll be true
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
Tomorrow I'll miss you
Remember I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send all my loving to you
All my loving, I will send to you
All my loving, darling I'll be true
All my loving, all my loving
Swing back and forth
A beautiful thing taking you away
My head is spinning
My girl tried to stop me
But I had a taste of you
Unfamiliar surroundings
Left me wanting something new
Physical ain't even my type
But you're one of a kind
So subconsciously on purpose
I left my coat behind
I can't help it, need to stop it
All that I put myself through
Everyone is so denying
Yeah, it's nice to meet you, too
I hate my alcoholic logic
As I write this on the train
Victoria's Secret in my bag
And my thighs ache again
Last night tips into my mind
Through the puddle in my head
I always get what I want
I think I even said
I can't help, it need to stop it
All that I put myself through
Everyone is so denying
Yeah, it's nice to meet you, too
Although I enjoyed it
I should have tied up my loose ends
But I left my jacket with you
And you know my friends
So maybe you will get my number
Or ask them when I'm ached down
But I may have forgotten you
By the next time I'm in town
I can't help, it need to stop it
All that I put myself through
Everyone is so denying
i've been so many places in my life and time
i've sung a lot of songs i've made some bad rhyme
i've acted out my love in stages
with ten thousand people watching
but we're alone now and i'm singing this song for you
i know your image of me is what i hope to be
i've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
there's no one more important to me
darlin' can't you please see through me
cause we're alone now and i'm singing this song for you
you taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing
you came out in front and i was hiding
but now i'm so much better and if my words don't come together
listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
i love you in a place where there's no space or time
i love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
and when my life is over
remember when we were together
we were alone and i was singing this song for you
you taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing
you came out in front and i was hiding
but now i'm so much better and if my words don't come together
listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
i love you in a place where there's no space or time
i love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
and when my life is over
remember when we were together
we were alone and i was singing this song for you
There is no greater love
Than what I feel for you
No sweeter song, no heart so true
There is no greater thrill
Than what you bring to me
No sweeter song
Than what you sing, sing to me
You're the sweetest thing
I have ever known
And to think that you are mine alone
There is no greater love
In all the world, it's true
No greater love
